A registered mental health nurse since 1986, Jacquie studied the role of the mental health nurse in medication management for her first degree and conducted a programme of research into nurse-led physical health checks in secondary mental health services for her PhD.

This work implemented the Health Improvement Profile (HIP), a tool she co-designed for mental health nurses that is now used across the world.

Developing practice that has an impact on the mental health and wellbeing of adults and young people remains the focus of her teaching, research and scholarship activity. Jacquie has worked in a variety of roles at the University and has been Associate Dean Education since 2015.

Jacquie welcomes applications in areas related to medication management, shared decision making, nurse-led interventions, mental health and population level interventions to address multi morbidity in primary or secondary care setting or those that aim to strengthen emotional resilence and mental wellbeing in children and young people.
